Info Session: YPS Grant Program + Impact Accelerator 2026-2027

We're excited to announce the fifth year of the Yale Planetary Solutions (YPS) Grant Program, which includes the new Planetary Solutions Impact Accelerator. The YPS Grant Program + Impact Accelerator catalyzes work on planetary challenges from across the university. Each year, approximately $2M is available to support faculty and staff projects that create new knowledge, spark action, and drive impact. This year, awards will be made along three distinct tracks, with support ranging from $25,000 to $250,000, as well as support for commercialization through the Planetary Solutions Impact Accelerator. The deadline to submit proposals is 11:59 PM on January 30, 2026.

YPS staff will give an overview of the Grant Program and RFP, provide information about the new Impact Accelerator, and describe how to apply. Participants will have time to ask questions.
